After all of them were reborn, who would still be an actor?

Chapter 228: Persuasion and Winning the Legend of Zhen Huan
Zheng Dalong pointed to the door and said, "No one will come in suddenly, right?"

"There are people guarding outside."

Zheng Dalong took a sip of wine and said, "It's not as easy as you think. Hua'er and I have a contract. I have no choice. If you want to make a TV series these days, you can't even sell it without a relationship with a TV station. The investors of "Empresses in the Palace" are not small, and the contract has been signed."

"Director Zheng, don't say that. I don't know much about the TV industry, but you do. I just want the two of us to get rich."

Li Mingyang picked up the wine glass.

Zheng Dalong was very hesitant. He had a way to scare away all the investors, or even force the company to compromise, but the consequences would be serious...

"Director Li, you have a lot of cash and can attract capital. I believe in you, but I still want to stay in the TV industry. Don't force me. It's the same with investment. 20 million can get a lot of shares. It's not good to eat alone. You are still young. You need to have a wider road so that you can go a long way."

Li Mingyang sighed and put down his glass. "Director Zheng! You still don't understand! Look at Tangren. He eats all the food by himself and offends so many people, but he is still thriving. Many Internet companies are rushing to invest in him. He has no worries about capital. Look at Huaer Films. They are pinning all their hopes on you."

"TV stations can't help film and television companies go public, but Internet companies can!"

What Li Mingyang said are all fallacies.

The film and television industry has its own rules of survival.

But for some reason, Zheng Dalong felt hurt by Li Mingyang's words. He felt uncomfortable and under great pressure.

"Director Zheng, you should think more about yourself."

"Instead of helping others to become capital, it is better to become capital yourself." Li Mingyang picked up the wine glass again and persuaded him earnestly: "Although they will block your previous path, don't you still have the video website? You may earn a lot less, but no matter how much you earn, you are working for yourself, which is comfortable!"

"Become your own capital..." Zheng Dalong murmured for a while, his eyes a little dazed. After a while, the hesitation in his eyes disappeared, and he smiled and expressed his doubts, "I am already old, and I can't do anything except filming TV series. I am very uncertain!"

"I'll cover you."

……

Zheng Dalong no longer had any worries and urged the contract to be signed.

Li Mingyang stood up and walked to the sideboard, opened the drawer, and took out the contract that had been prepared long ago.

Zheng Dalong was very satisfied with the contents of the contract, especially the one hundred million.

The filming plan for "The Legend of Zhen Huan" has been completed. It will cost less than 100 million yuan, 70 million will be enough.

And the remaining money will naturally be his.

However, as a big shot in the TV industry, Li Mingyang would have to back him up in the future, so he still revealed the budget for "Empresses in the Palace", which was less than 100 million yuan.

Li Mingyang didn't mind this, but took out another additional gambling contract.

Zheng Dalong opened the contract and gladly accepted the challenge. This betting contract could be said to be the friendliest betting contract he had ever seen.

What we compete for is ratings and word of mouth.

If the ratings are not good, you will lose money.

If the bet was on profits, Zheng Dalong would not dare to sign, but if it was on ratings, he would never worry.

With a 2-point viewership rating on satellite TV, who are you looking down on?

These 30 million are mine!

Zheng Dalong signed the contract happily, but he didn't know there was a huge pitfall in this contract.

If it is broadcast online first and then on satellite TV, unless it is during CCTV's prime time, even a god will not be able to save it.

Now is the Internet age, and it is rare to see ratings exceeding 1.

Next year...the ratings of Shishi's representative work "Startling by Each Step" did not exceed 2.

The ratings of "Legend of Zhen Huan" in its previous life did not exceed 2.

The most explosive thing about "Legend of Zhen Huan" is the long tail effect!

After signing the contract, Li Mingyang felt relieved, opened the door and called Wu Zhikui in.

From now on, the person who will communicate with Zheng Dalong will be Wu Zhikui.

……

At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Jing Tian and his group arrived in Hengdian.

Accompanying Jing Tian were Lu Zhen, Sun Honglei, Wu Zhenyu, Jiang Wu, Guo Heipang, Hao Hao, Kan Qingzhi, and a large number of accompanying personnel.

A lot of people were mobilized.

Jing Tian and her besties Hao Hao and Kan Qingzhi were sitting in a car, talking and laughing. Naturally, the one who talked the most was Li Mingyang.

Hao Hao and Kan Qingzhi used to envy Jing Tian, ​​but now they are really jealous of her.

Not only does she have a strong background, she also has a boyfriend who is a big director.

It has been a long time since Beijing Film Academy produced a great director.

He is a talented director who has revolutionized the domestic entertainment industry as soon as he made his debut.

They are from the Department of Acting and are classmates.

Both women regretted not getting there first and letting Jing Tian get the advantage for nothing.

"Tiantian, last time I heard you say that Li Mingyang bought you a villa in Hengdian. Where is it?"

"The villas in Hengdian shouldn't be expensive."

"It's not very expensive, just over 24 million."

The two girls were stunned. How could there be a villa worth more than 20 million in this shabby place like Hengdian? They must have been cheated.

"The house is OK and quite comfortable, but there are not many people living in the neighborhood, so it's too deserted."

“Maybe it’s too expensive, so no one buys it.”

You two were fooled, but others are not that stupid.

In Hengdian, a shabby place, even a villa worth 10 million is hard to sell.

It takes more than two hours to get from Hangzhou Airport to Hengdian International Trade Center.

After chatting for a while, Jing Tian felt a little sleepy and fell asleep in the chair soon.

Kan Qingzhi looked at Jing Tian who was sleeping soundly, and then glanced at classmate Hao who was texting with someone. He felt that classmate Hao was really in the way.

Kan Qingzhi is not from the Warring States crew, she came to find Jing Tian with a mission.

The last time Li Mingyang went to Rongxinda, Li Shaohong said all kinds of good things to him, even gave out shares and asked Li Mingyang to help with the listing.

But Li Mingyang neither refused nor accepted it.

This made Li Shaohong and Li Xiaowan upset.

The last time Youku went public, Li Shaohong went to Hengdian to find Li Mingyang to discuss cooperation. Unexpectedly, Li Mingyang refused directly without giving in.

Li Shaohong and Li Xiaowan did not intend to give up. They found Kan Qingzhi alone and asked her to find an opportunity to sleep with Li Mingyang.

Classmate, girlfriend’s roommate and best friend, with a pure face and a hot body.

Li Xiaowan first praised Kan Qingzhi, and then told Kan Qingzhi directly that if he failed, he should stop acting and change his career.

An obvious threat.

Not only was she hidden from the screen, but all her scenes in the new Dream of the Red Chamber were deleted, and her role in the new My Fair Princess was also removed.

After spending some time on the Far Cry crew, Kan Qingzhi gained a full understanding of domestic entertainment.

There is a huge difference between famous actresses and third-tier actresses.

The entire crew revolved around Yang Mi, and a lot of people from top to bottom fawned on her. Dapeng would ask Yang Mi to take a look after every shoot, and would reshoot if he was not satisfied.

Originally, she thought that she didn't have many scenes and the filming would be finished soon.

Who knew that because of Yang Mi's words, "They've all left, who can I find for reshoots?", everyone was dragged until the whole series was finished, and then it was really finished...

Even though she is Jingtian’s best friend, there is no exception.

Zhang Ruoyun is still Li Mingyang's good brother, but he was still dragged away, and he had to smile and say it's okay, I'm not in a hurry.

The life of a young actor is not a life! The time of a young actor is not a time!
She also wants to be a big star and be praised by the crew, and taking shortcuts is the fastest way.

But she didn't want to be slept with and played with by Li Mingyang for nothing. Besides, if Jing Tian found out, their friendship would be ruined, and she was afraid of retaliation!

So Kan Qingzhi shared his concerns with Li Xiaowan and Li Shaohong.

Li Xiaowan told her not to worry, the company would provide the resources and Jing Tian didn't have to worry.

There is no need to take photos or record any audio, just sleep.

Li Xiaowan made it so clear that Kan Qingzhi had no choice but to agree.

Li Mingyang is a bit of a jerk and difficult to get along with, so Kan Qingzhi plans to start with Jing Tian.

Let's try something exciting.

Around five o'clock in the afternoon, Kan Qingzhi and Jing Tian went to the hotel's spa first for a beauty and skin care treatment, and then went to the hotel bar to have desserts, drinks, and watch a performance.

This made Kan Qingzhi speechless.

Isn’t today Li Mingyang’s birthday?

You're already at the hotel, why don't you go to see him? Did they have a fight?

"Tiantian, Mr. Lu called me, I'll be there first." Hao Hao suddenly said after answering a phone call.

"Go."

Hao Hao finally left, and Kan Qingzhi couldn't help but ask, "Tiantian, aren't you here to celebrate Li Mingyang's birthday? Why are you still here?"

Jing Tian took a sip of the cocktail and blinked her big watery eyes. "Do you really want to see him?"

"Yeah! They must have all gone to see Li Mingyang."

"Do you have anything to talk to him about?"

"Of course there is... Tiantian, aren't you curious about what Li Mingyang is doing?" Kan Qingzhi chuckled, "The entertainment industry is so chaotic, how come you are not worried at all? Your Li Mingyang is coveted by many people."

"Are you jealous?" Jing Tian said with a smile.

"I was worried about you, but you wronged me and ignored you." Kan Qingzhi said angrily.

"Nothing to worry about. He's... how should I put it, quite picky."

"Are you really not worried? Then why did you react so strongly to Master Liu?"

Jing Tian tilted his head and looked at Kan Qingzhi, "Who asked you to ask?"

"Is it not okay for me to be curious? Don't worry, I won't tell Li Mingyang about it."

Jing Tian picked up the cocktail and shook it.

Kan Qingzhi was a little anxious after waiting for an answer for a long time. Just as he was about to ask again, he heard Jing Tian say, "You can try to seduce him and you will know."

Kan Qing was shocked and thought he was exposed. He didn't know what to do.

Jing Tian smiled again and said, "If you can kiss him, I will help you join the crew of Your Name."

"You're taking this joke too far. I'm not that kind of person."

Jing Tian smiled, bit the straw, and drank the cocktail.

After a while, Kan Qingzhi frowned and said, "Tiantian, are you telling the truth?"

"What really?"

"Just a kiss, and you're willing to help me?"

"Of course it's true, but if you don't kiss me, you have to promise me one thing."

"Don't be angry."

"Haha."

Jing Tian bit the straw and nodded.
